BillingSleY Bill.
Com.

This bill, to regulate the piping
and storage of oil, and which is now
before the Senate, seems to be hang
ing fire there. From the first we re-
garded it measure in favor of the
oil producers of our own county as
well as the oil producers generally.
But there is opposition manifested to
its passage through the Senate. Mr..
Meredith, Senator from this district,
when the bill was up in the Senate,
last Tuesday, presented a remon-
STRANGE in the form of telegram from
this place, alleged to be signed by a
number of citizens or producers of
this town and county. AS we never
heard of any opposition to the bill
here we, with others, suppose there
must be some mistake as to this tele-
gram sent to Harrisburg

The HaddOck Murder Trial.

The jury in the case of Arensdorf,
charged with the murder of Rev.
Haddock in Sioux City, Iowa, last
summer, was discharged at noon on
Sunday the 18th inst, having been
out "a hours. The foreman said that
ii favored acquittal, and as only one
showed stubborness, there was yet
hope of an agreement. Thereupon
Dennis O'Connell rose and said he
was the stubborn juryman referred to;
that his opinion was matter of judg-
ment and conscience between him and
his God and that if the jury should
remain out Eve weeks, he could not
discard what he considered right
opinion for wrong one. The judge
then discharged the jury. This
leaves the case in the same condition
as it was before the trial began 30 far
as the court is concerned.

Negotiations Between Uncle
Sam and John Bull.
WHAT THE ENGLISH GOVERNMENT
PROPOSES

PROPOSES.
WASHINGTON, April 20.-It is un-
derstood that Lord Salisbury, in q
dispatch sent here March oath, said
that the British Government, under
standing the action of the United
States in denouncing the fishery
articles of the treaty of Washington
to be, in a great degree, the result of
disappointment at being called upon
to pay e, 1,lO0,0 600 under the Halifax
fisheries award, offers to revert to the
old condition of affairs, without pc
cuniary indemnity, which offer, it
trusts, will commend itself to the
American Government as being based
upon that spirit of good will and gen.
erosity which should animate two
great and kindred nations whose com.
mon origin, language and institutions
constitute as many bonds of amity
and concord.
Sec. Bayard refuses to confirm or
deny the statement. 1t is thought the
dispatch was sent as sort of feeler.
The negotiations are progressing and
it is thought that satisfactory un-
derstanding will soon be reached. So
many applications for information
and copies of the treaty of Washing
ton have poured in upon the depart
ment since the adjournment of Con-
gress that the 10000 copies of that
treaty printed for the use of the de-
partment have been exhausted and a
fresh supply has been ordered

JUST as the opponents of woman
suffrage say-but q saying that has
no weight as an argument-when the
women have the right to vote they
will vote for the man and not for
principles. In Belvidere, New Jer-
sey, y,on Tuesday an election for school
trustee was held, and as the ladies
were allowed to vote they cast their
ballots for and elected John Sinner
son, who is an editor and an eligible
widower 1t was perfectly proper
that the ladies should cast their bal
lots for an editor, but couldn't they
find one who was not a widower!
Why not an editor who was an eligi-
BILE batchelor, or one denominated as
"good catch" who had not yet
turned thirty,-Ec,

An East Brady correspond ent
to a Pittsburg paper states that the
coal operators along the Allegheny
Valley are complaining bitterly
against the new freight tariff which
has gone into effect since the passage
of the Interstate Commerce bill. All
the coal mined at the Stephenson &
Mitchell and Hon. Galusha A.
Grows mines, situated at East Brady
was shipped to Buffalo and Canada,
and unless the railroads give them the
rates they formerly had they will be
compelled to stop mining, as they
canuot pay the existing rate, and
there is not local trade enough to use
fraction of the output of these large
miRes. -Ex.

AMONG the letters received BY the
Navy Department is series from a
Pennsylvania submitting plans for
rams and cruisers of high speed. His
first letter enclosed a draft of ram
having two propellers, ard capable of
running IS knots an hour. After
submitting this plan the inventor be-
gan adding propellers with q view to
increase the speed Of his craft, until
in his last letter he proposed to
build vessel with six propellers ca
pable of steaming 35 knots an hour.
The plans Of this inventor have been
fled, but as they are wholly at
variance with all present notions OF
vessel building, is not probable
that they will ever be utilized

While viewing the wreck of a
freight train on the Chicago & North
western Railroad, near Palatine, ILL.,,
recently, five persons were killed by
the bursting of a large water tank.
The accident occurred at 5 O'Clock in
the afternoon, and it is supposed that
the collision of the freight trains in
the immediate vicinity in the morn
ing had Jared the immense tank, con-
tanning one hundred thousand gallons
of water, and loosened or cracked the
hoops, which gave way while large
crowd Of country people were stand
ing Immediately under the structure.

If Canada wants to retain the en-
migrants whose passage across the

them to come, it will have to move or
erect an impossible barrier between
itself and the United States. Of the

Canada last year, l22, 900, forty-three
per cent. decided after landing to
cross the border and settle in the

facts in the Dominion Parliament

The new Phillips well, No. 9, on
the Markell farm has increased the in
terest in the Reibold field. On Mon
day last it flowed 50 barrels per hour
or ,4SS barrels during the day, "a
hours, and has been doing about the
same up to this writing, Thursday
And this while the drill is only in the
top sand and the well not completed.
The limits of this field have not been
defined as yet and in which direction
it may extend will be determined
only by the drill. The general opin-
ion seems to be it will follow the
Connoquennessing. and if that be the
case we may soon look for lively
times in and about Evans City and

greater than at first reported. Pres

dav night and was wiped out of ex-
istence; not single building being
left standing to mark the site of a
once prosperous and thriving town.
The force of the wind is described as
something fearful, but it came from
the northwest instead of the south
west. as is usual. Hail fell at the
same time, some of the stones meas
uring thirteen inches in circumference.
The wind came in the shape of a fun
mel and made it's descent about seven
miles north of Prescott.
One of the first places struck was
Mr.. Flynn's residence, four miles
north of Prescott. 1t was mashed
fat and Mrs. Flynn and three small
children were probably fatally ln-
iured, while two visitors were badly
hurt. Jacob Brook and wife and
one son, William McPold and wife
